Hi, I’m Whitney McEwen, LPC. I work with children, teens, and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional regulation challenges. I take a personalized, down-to-earth approach that blends evidence-based practices like CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Play Therapy. My goal is to create a space where clients of all ages feel safe to explore their emotions, build coping skills, and move forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

- Manage Medications: Provides therapy and collaborates closely with our psychiatry team for medication management, available through internal referral if needed.
I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional regulation challenges. My approach is honest, empathetic, and client-focused. I believe in meeting each person where they are and tailoring treatment to support their unique goals and life experiences. Whether you’re struggling with overwhelming emotions, parenting stress, or past trauma, I’m here to help you build resilience and clarity.
In my work, I often draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and Play Therapy to create a personalized and engaging path toward healing. I support clients in learning how to recognize and express their emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and gain self-confidence. I’ve also worked with veterans, first responders, individuals with autism, and families impacted by chronic stress and trauma, always with a trauma-informed, compassionate lens.
Clients often share that they feel safe, understood, and comfortable opening up in our sessions. My goal is to create a space where trust can grow and real progress can be made. Together, we’ll build practical skills that support long-term growth and emotional empowerment, helping you feel more in control, capable, and connected.
